The Executive Secretary/CEO was on a joint advocacy visit with the Commissioner for Poverty Eradication, the Chairman of the Enugu State Committee on Nutrition, representatives from UNICEF, and other key stakeholders to Igbo Etiti, Udi, and Nkanu West local government areas.
The visit aligns with the Federal Government’s N-774 initiative, aimed at establishing Local Government Area (LGA) Committees on Food and Nutrition across all 774 LGAs in Nigeria. In line with national standards to enhance nutritional outcomes, Enugu State is taking proactive steps to actualize this vision, recognizing that strong, community-based structures are vital to improving the nutritional status of its people.
The LGA Chairmen pledged their full commitment to the initiative, promising to inaugurate their respective LGA Committees on Food and Nutrition and to provide the necessary support to ensure these committees effectively carry out their assignments.
